If it look slike that I'm buying that badboy, 2012 is shaping up to be a blinding year.
Also the year I'm due to buy a new motor ;o))) I will own a new car for more then 1 year, I'm pushing for 4 years of ownership ha ha

The Capri was rear wheel drive boys, it was based on the Cortina. Schoolboy error...

Article: "The car would probably keep to the traditional FWD layout of the old Capri cars"
Wrong! :-)

I think its based on the 2003 Ford Visos Concept.

Ford doesn't need to worry , the European division is strong and people actually like Ford.

i agree with peter. looks like a rebodied volvo. the car must be a rwd for it to honestly carry the capri name. otherwise, its just playing on history with no substance.

Looks remarkably like a Ford 'kinetic design' snout grafted to a Volvo C30. Can't imagine the folks in Sweden will go for that.

Um, not really. There is also the Brera and Megane coupe. I think the Scirocco is the only threat. The other 2 are useless.

Real one will be RWD and fortunately differentiated from shown on that image, so wow, great news! As a Fords are in general the new Capri will be better to drive than Scirocco.

VOLVO LOOK A LIKE - SHOULD HAVE SHORT REAR OVERHANG AND LONG NOSE - MUST BE REARWHEEL DRIVE.
